As we wrap up our celebration of Pride Month, Dana Baylous (she/her), Training Lead, shares how the LGBTQ+ @ Affirm ERG has united employees across the company while fostering a personal sense of belonging for her and others. #pridemonth #affirmers #unity “The LGBTQ+@Affirm ERG has given me a space where I can be myself, connect with amazing colleagues, and feel truly supported. I have been able to show up as my full self at work and even more, welcomed, recognized and embraced. I have also had the chance to create intentional and amazing intersectional educational opportunities by collaborating with other ERGs. It’s a vibe and honestly, being part of the LGBTQ+ ERG has turned Affirm into a place where I really feel that I belong.”

Assessment tools are excellent for helping clients understand the dynamics of non-conventional employment opportunities. Focusing on helping LGBTQ+ clients recognize the importance of positive, confident, well-informed communication habits through use of these tools represents one of the best ways to help individuals gain a proper perspective and foundation in business administration and operations, allowing them valuable insight into business norms across industries and unifying their talent and goals with the culture of non-conventional opportunities. These opportunities represent amazing chances for LGBTQ+ clients to enjoy finding new, non-conventional opportunities while helping them identify the most important, consistent habits needed for success. You have the language and the heart; training and personal effort, then, determines your happiness. #LGBTQ+ #Employment #Training #PeerSupport #IndustrySupport

You shouldn’t have to pause when it comes to ticking the box next to your gender or sexuality. But if you are a member of the LGBTQ+ community, the fear of prejudice or discrimination can make it hard for you to be your true self during your job search. Companies should make it clear what LGBTQ+ support they offer, from networking groups to involvement in awareness initiatives. And remember, your rights are always protected during the hiring process – and in the workplace. So fill in that form with pride – and let’s keep pushing forward. 🏳️🌈 #PrideMonth #lgbt #LoveIsLove #JobSearch #InclusiveWorkplace

Global Head of Marketing: Accenture Growth & Strategy | Performance Marketer | Brand Builder | Transformational Leader | Creative mindset with financial acumen
If dressing head to toe in rainbow colors helps someone feel comfortable being their authentic self, I’ll do it! Today, on #NationalComingOutDay, I celebrate those that have taken the courageous step to live their truth. 🏳️🌈 You see, you never come out just once. It's a constant process every time you meet someone new. In a world where 76% of #LGBTQ+ youth face bullying at school and 50% of LGBTQ+ individuals feel unable to be out at work — we must ensure a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment for everyone. At Accenture, we believe in the power of authenticity and strive for a workplace where everyone can proudly be who they are. #Inclusion #Diversity #Pride

As we continue to celebrate Pride Month, we're thrilled to introduce Danny Cabral, an inspiring professional at SimplePractice. Danny’s journey, from embracing his identity to championing inclusivity, offers valuable insights and motivation for us all. Q: Why is it important to support and celebrate the LGBTQ+ community at work? A: "It is important because even though we are in a professional setting, an individual’s identity and the characteristics that make them unique are important to support/celebrate. This helps an individual feel seen and valued within a collective." Q: How has being part of the LGBTQ+ community influenced your career and work life? A: "When I accepted who I was there was a huge realization where I knew I wanted my work life to reflect that. I started as a speech-language pathologist where my goal was to help all people gain the skills to communicate their needs and wants. Whereas now my goal is to help other healthcare providers navigate running a successful business so they can give back to others." Q: What initiatives or practices at SimplePractice make you feel supported and included as an LGBTQ+ individual or ally? A: "The official induction of the ERG I found has been one of the greatest ways I feel supported here at the company." #PrideMonth #CelebrateDiversity #WorkplaceEquality

Talking about diversity is inherently emotional and can be complex. However, doing the work and research to understand basic facts about any community can make any interaction more inclusive and meaningful. Reviewing your company policies for LGBTQ+ inclusion is a great place to start. Alongside this, LGBTQ+-specific training as part of your overall EDI (equity, diversity and inclusion) training strategy is key to enlightening all staff about LGBTQ+ issues and reinforcing company policies to ensure all understand them. ⭐For HR policy advice, book a FREE 15 minute consultation with a member of our team.⭐ Click the link in our bio or email [email protected]. 🏳️🌈 #LGBTHistoryMonth #LGBTQ+ #InclusivePolicies #GenderInclusive #ALittleBitOfHR

🏳️🌈 Embracing Diversity and Inclusion 🏳️🌈 Let's talk about something important: LGBTQ+ inclusion. It's about recognizing and celebrating the beautiful diversity of human relationships and identities. Love knows no boundaries, and every individual deserves respect, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. In a world where understanding and acceptance matter, let's stand up for LGBTQ+ rights. It's not about forcing beliefs, but about creating a society where everyone can be themselves without fear or prejudice. It's about love, support, and the freedom to be who you are. So, let's spread kindness, foster inclusivity, and work together to build a world where all voices are heard, valued, and respected. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 #LGBTQ+ #InclusionMatters
